The question arose over whether the newly desegregated school, located far from predominately black neighborhoods, made it more difficult for these students to attend school. The necessity and availability of the District&#8217;s partially-subsidized transportation system came into question. The defendant claimed that attendance had not been affected by this alleged issue and that they fully complied with the court-mandated desegregation plan. The plaintiff argued that the defense bears the burden of ensuring that the newly integrated students have every opportunity to receive an education. Any student who lives an excess of one mile from the school they attend ought to be provided free transportation, the plaintiff argued. In referencing other cases, as the defense provided no estimates of their own, the Court deemed that the financial burden of $54.60\/student\/yr. for school bus riders was not excessive for the District, which boasted a $4 million budget that year. The District was forced to provide free busing.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Call number<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Civil Action Case #3554<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Date from<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>1962<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Date to<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>1973<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Geographic school<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Prince George County, VA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Size<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>1 Box<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Access restrictions yes\/no<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Access restrictions<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Part Of larger collection yes\/no<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Larger collection title<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>URL<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Repository<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>NARA Mid-Atlantic Region<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Repository address<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>14700 Townsend Road, Philadelphia, PA 19154-1096<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Repository contact name<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>David Weber<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Repository contact title<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Director, Records Management Program<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Repository contact email<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>philadelphia.reference@nara.gov<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Repository contact phone<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(215) 305-2000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>DoveRegion<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(outside of Virginia)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"194\"><strong>Subjects<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 African American students<\/p>\n<p>o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Busing for school integration<\/p>\n<p>o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Public schools<\/p>\n<p>o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 School children<\/p>\n<p>o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 School integration<\/p>\n<p>o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 United States.
